For the Week of January 25th

Family Book Night

Prairieview is having a family book night, Thursday, February 11th from 6:30-8:00 P.M. You will be traveling throughout the school from book station-to-book station having fun with all different types of books. After following the directions for each station, your family will stamp their passport. At the end of the evening, we hope that everyone goes home with an idea for a new book they would like to read. The evening will also include light refreshments and a raffle. Many families have already signed up. If you would like to join us, see the Prairieview website for information and forms. The deadline for signing up is Friday, January 29th.

Word Game to Play while Waiting

An easy and fun word game to play with your child while waiting in an office is to place a word on a piece of paper. Then take turns changing that word by changing one of its letters or adding on an extra letter or taking away a letter. Try to start with a word that you know will change into a lot of words easily. For example: come, came, lame, lime, slime, slim, slam, slum etc. Have fun!
